... The song “this little light of mine” is a source rom Matthew 5:16, "Let your light shine before men, they may see your fine works and give glory to your Father who is in the heaven. This is a gospel children’s song written by Harry Dixon Loes (1895-1965) in about 1920. “This little light of mine” inspired millions. People still sing the famous well-known song today and they don’t really have a clue what is means. “This Little Light of Mine” is a traditional Negro spiritual about the importance of unity in the face of adversity. The first spirituals were inspired by African music even if the tunes were not far from those of Christian hymns. Some of them, called “shouts,” were accompanied by dancing, hand clapping and foot tapping. Drawing on the Bible for inspiration and imagery, most spirituals instruct listeners in how to live with the Spirit of God. These songs often had multiple meanings. The literal interpretation reflected the personal relationship between the slave singer and God. However, the spirituals also translated to code for slaves looking to escape to the North to freedom. For example, as part of the spiritual’s lyrics, “home” can mean Heaven, but it covertly means a free country and haven for slaves. The refrain of “This Little Light of Mine” refers to the light inside each individual and how, whether standing up alone or joining together, each little bit of light can break the darkness. The song has since been applied to many struggles. It was especially popular...

...Establish and Operate a Security Checkpoint PE 1. Wall Search of multiple Subjects. When you search two or more individuals, they must all assume a position against the same wall or object but far enough apart that they cannot reach each other. The guard takes a position a few paces to the rear of the line with his weapon ready. The search starts with the person on the right end of the line. Upon completing the search of the first individual, the searcher moves that individual to the left end of the line, the individual assumes the proper position against the wall. The searcher resumes with the individual now on the right end of the line. The searcher must be careful to approach and search the remaining individuals without coming between them and the guard. 2. Frisk Search. This is a quick search of an individual for weapons, evidence, or contraband. Conduct the search in the presence of an assistant (guard) and a witness, when available. In conducting the frisk search, the searcher positions himself to prevent possible endangerment. The searcher’s guard takes a position from which he can cover the individual with his weapon. The searcher must avoid moving between the guard and the searched individual. The searched individual must raise his arms above his head. The searcher slides his hands over the individual’s entire body, crushing the clothing to locate concealed objects. If the searched is carrying a bag or wearing a coat or hat, these are also searched, with...

...has to be treated fairly to avoid a candidate not being chosen due to discrimination. Nowhere is perfect, there will be some search consultants who have favorites and try to get them selected instead, but all firms should be striving to avoid that practice. Evaluation This article had some deal to do with business conduct. When reading this article, the ethical dilemma in Chapter three comes to mind. Lavonda had been recruited to another pharmaceutical firm. But how it she was recruited was not, by any means, appropriate. The case itself said that Lavonda was “lured away from her last company because of her expertise in the pharmaceutical industry and early success in management”. How Lavonda was recruited is exactly how the article “Searching for the Top” described not to do. The article also mentions lying. In chapter three, it also discussed how lying was unethical. “Lying can be segmented into (1) causing damage or harm; (2) a ‘white lie,’ … an excuse or...

...Federated Searching: A New Era “Only librarians like to search; everyone else likes to find” (Tennant, 2003). While most librarians teach research strategies including: Boolean logic, accessing carefully chosen databases, and indexing; students are often discouraged and frustrated using these techniques. Most students simply want to Google their requests. For many students a simple keyword search is a convenient, simple process for locating information. Federated searching is providing options that may strike a happy medium for students and librarians alike by providing a keyword option to access the library’s databases. Federated searching is software or a service that allows multiple sources to be searched simultaneously. A library is required to purchase software and/or a service agreement from a vendor that provides access to information in the databases and on the Web. Using a search protocol, like Z39.50, the engine scans various databases, the Web, and library catalogs concurrently and provides an organized result for the searcher’s query. Metasearches are performed across both bibliographic and full-text databases. One major advantage of a federated search is that the query does not have to be repeated with various databases. When federated searching works well, it reduces the amount of time students spend locating data and encourages them to search for more information. “The goal of many federated search tools is to make the interface as simple and streamlined...

... I think, are one of main causes for non-excelling students. Also, you must think about the consequences of an inaccurate search. Suppose one of officers finds something drug related, such as an empty beer bottle. Does he have the right to obtain this and search further? If he does, and finds no trace of other drug relations, does the student receive some sort of suspension? Or perhaps, the officer abuses his rights and attempts to retrieve an item for an obvious suspicion. What would the student say when all of his homework is scattered within his locker? We all know how private our belongings can be. At what point has searching a student’s locker gone too far? I guess it depends on how the officers go about searching the locker. If they use a dog to sniff out the drugs, would this be absolutely accurate? I’m not sure how they would go about searching for weapons on school grounds. Surely they wouldn’t search everyone’s bag for weapons. However, law enforcement these days...

...IT 237 Week 8 Checkpoint 4/25/2012 How are <meta> tags used to promote accessibility and search engine optimization? Say you have a couple hundreds of photos and each photo has many different people in them. By using a <meta> tag all you have to do is search the name of the person you are looking for and their pictures will pop up. This tag helps search by not making everything in one location, instead if you know the <meta> tag all you have to do is type it in the search and all the information is there. Another good thing about this tag is that you don’t need to know the file names. I like this tag since it helps searching easier as well as being able to not know all the details about the file you are looking for. Take a look at Google. All we have to do is type a name and it automatically searches for the name we typed in. This is a form of the <meta> tag. What is the importance of professional standards in Web development? The importance of professional standards in Web development allows browsers and designers to interact easier with each other. By doing this it helps the designer by knowing what the browser is asking as far as being professional. By having so many different forms of browsers out there, it is hard to have a site look the same on each one. So by having HTML code behaving in the same manner on all browsers is a step in professional standards. By having these professional standards it decreases the development time and...

...the reasons why I used those resources. I will also review what sources I consulted; the databases and search engines used and the terms I used to search for my information. In conclusion, I will go over the rejected resources and the reasons why I chose not to use them. I believe the most crucial portion of the research process is finding a place to get the required information for any given topic. Having an extensive knowledge of online applications, I chose to do my research of online education completely online. I did this not only to help with proving the point of readily available information online, but also because of the lack of availability to local land resources such as a local library. A key part to a research process, when searching online, is finding where to look and how to cipher through the amazing amount of information. The first part of my online research process however, didn’t actually start online. I used text books like, Research and Documentation in the Electronic Age and Research for Writers that I had on hand to review lists of recommended online resources and styles. The more general databases recommended were Academic Search Premier, Expanded Academic ASAP and JSTOR. The more subject specific ones were ERIC, MLA Bibliography, PsycINFO (would have been nice in Psychology class), and PubMed. I have usually found that simply doing a general search of the specific question you are researching can be a great help to gaining a better understanding of the...

...Search Patterns When a crime has been committed and investigators need to search for evidence, there are different search patterns that investigators can choose from. These search patterns include spiral, line, zone, and grid (Siegel & Mirakovits, 2013). Depending on the crime scene, the investigator will choose from one of these search patterns that will best utilize the search for evidence. When an investigating team needs to search for evidence in a field where the field is overgrown, a grid search is a good search to utilize. When a field is overgrown, the searches may have to crawl on their hands and knees to locate any evidence and perform a thorough search. A grid line search consists of searchers following a line pattern and then following another line pattern that is perpendicular to the first line pattern (Lee, Palmbach, & Miller, 2001). The grid search pattern is a good search to utilize because it allows two different searchers, or the same searcher, to search the same area twice. Therefore, the searchers a more likely not to miss any evidence that needs to be collected. A con to the grid line search is that it is very time consuming and if the boundaries to be searched are not well established, than the search will not be very thorough (Lee, Palmbach, & Miller, 2001). The grid line search was chosen for this scenario because a thorough search can be accomplished by having two different searchers look over the same area. If one searcher...
